Introductory nuclear physics

K. S. Krane - Introductory nuclear physics
John Wiley and Sons | 1988 | ISBN: 0471859141 | English | 872 Pages | PDF | 139 MB

This work began as a collaborative attempt with David Halliday to revise ant update the second edition of his classic text Introductory Nuclear Physics (New York, Wiley. 1955). As the project evolved, it became clear that, owing to other commitments. Professor Halliday would be able to devote only limited lime to the project and he therefore volunteered to remove himself from active participation, a proposal to which I reluctantly and regretfully agreed. He was kind enough to sign over to me the rights to use the material from the previous edition.
This text is written primarily for an undergraduate audience, but could be used in introductory graduate surveys of nuclear physics as well. It can be used specifically for physics majors as part of a survey of modern physics, but could (with an appropriate selection of material) serve as an introductory course for other areas of nuclear science and technology, including nuclear chemistry, nuclear engineering, radiation biology, and nuclear medicine.
